20190178652 · 2019-06-13 · ·

The invention relates to a navigation assistance system comprising an electronic device and first and second human-machine interfaces that cooperate with the electronic device. The latter produces an orientation instruction, in the form of a message transmitted to one of said first and second human-machine interfaces depending on the orientation of a change of direction. Each human-machine interface advantageously comprises a display for outputting a light indication in response to the reception of the message. Advantageously positioned to the left and right, respectively, within the field of vision of a user of the system, the displays of the first and second human-machine interfaces output to the user a visual and lateralized navigational aid that is particularly intuitive and non-invasive.

Wearable for autonomous vehicle interaction

An aesthetically pleasing discreet wearable system for interacting with a vehicle, or fleet of vehicles. The wearable system may be worn as a necklace, bracelet, anklet, or the like and allows for communication between a passenger and a vehicle, or fleet of vehicles. A passenger may summon or cancel a ride, alter interior lighting and music levels, or otherwise control a vehicle by interacting with the wearable system. Such interaction includes signals generated by a microphone, by a touch sensor, or by gesture recognition. The wearable system communicates to the passenger a successful summoning of a ride, successfully canceling a ride, and a time to arrival by combinations of vibrations, light emissions, and audio alerts.

Systems and methods for simultaneously receiving voice instructions on onboard and offboard devices
10310808 · 2019-06-04 · ·

To allow a user to provide a voice instruction to either a portable device or a computing device embedded within a vehicle, both the portable device and the embedded computing device receive the voice instruction such as, Direct me to Kansas City. Moreover, both the portable device and the embedded computing device may determine the likelihoods that the portable device and the computing device, respectively, can carry out the voice instruction. The portable device and the computing device may then communicate with each other to compare the determined likelihoods. Based on the comparison, either the portable device or the computing device may respond to the voice instruction by, for example, playing a requested song, turning on the radio in the vehicle, providing navigation directions from the current location to a destination, etc.

Systems and methods for generating user offerings responsive to telematics data

A user analytics computing device for processing mobile device telematics data includes a processor in communication with a memory device. The processor is programmed to: (i) store a model to predict a travel mode for a user based upon historical telematics data, (ii) form a first group by assigning a user to the first group, (iii) receive telematics data associated with movement of the user, (iv) input the telematics data into the model to determine a travel mode of the user, (v) parse subsets of the telematics data based upon the determined travel modes, (vi) retrieve an eligibility condition defining eligibility to qualify for a user offering, (vii) aggregate one subset of the telematics data associated with the first travel mode of the user, (viii) determine that the group telematics data satisfies the eligibility condition, and (ix) cause a notification to be displayed on the mobile device of the user.
